Electrostatic discharge (ESD) poses a hidden threat to sensitive electronic components during production, storage, and shipping. To prevent costly damage, ESD tape is essential in electronics manufacturing environments.
When it comes to securing ESD-sensitive items, using the right tape is crucial. Our ESD tapes are specially designed to prevent static build-up and ensure safe handling. From high-temperature masking dots to ESD warning tapes, they offer various levels of protection suited to different applications.
Our range of ESD Tapes
High Temperature Masking Tape
This polyimide, pressure-sensitive tape features a silicone resin adhesive, providing excellent insulation and high-temperature and chemical resistance. It is ideal for electronics production, particularly for protecting printed circuit boards (PCBs) during wave solder or solder dip processes as well as for solder wave masking and electrical insulation. This tape is non-corrosive, high heat and solvent-resistant. It is available in various widths to suit a range of packaging and masking needs.
Features:
- Total thickness: 0.070mm
- Heat resistant up to 230°C
- 8 different width options
- Length: 33m

High Temperature Masking Polyimide Dots
High temperature polyimide masking dots are essential tools for precision electronics manufacturing, particularly for protecting gold fingers on printed circuit boards during wave soldering and solder dip processes as well as for solder wave masking and electrical insulation. Made from polyimide film with a silicone adhesive on a clear easy release liner these dots offer excellent dimensional stability and maintain their electrical and physical properties across a wide temperature range. They are chemical resistant, non-corrosive, and ozone-depleting, making them safe for a variety of manufacturing environments. Ideal for enhancing soldering processes and ensuring high-quality results.
Features:
- Heat resistant up to 230°C
- No residue when removed
- Chemical resistant
- Available in 4 diameter circles: 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm
- Sold in rolls of 1,000 dots

ESD Grid Tape
This antistatic tape is designed for use within ESD-protected areas (EPAs) and is fully printed with a grid pattern and the ESD caution logo for easy identification.
It has a static-dissipative surface coating, making it ideal for sealing primary or intimate packaging of static-sensitive components.
Manufactured from silicone-free, low-residue polypropylene, makes it suitable for general-purpose applications within an EPA, for example to mask or hold together components and circuit boards and ensuring that products remain ESD-safe and securely sealed.
Features:
- Total thickness: 0.15mm
- Meets EN 61340-5-1/5-2 standards
- low-tribocharging at 50% RH
- Available in 4 standard widths
- Length: 40m

ESD Warning Packaging Tape
This conventional self-adhesive PVC tape is designed to alert handlers to the presence of ESD-sensitive components. It features black text and an ESD logo on a yellow background, providing a clear visual reminder to observe ESD precautions. Although the tape is tribocharging and not suitable for use within an EPA, it is ideal for sealing secondary packaging, such as outer cartons. Using ESD warning packaging tape helps ensure that anyone handling the package is aware of its sensitive contents, minimising the risk of accidental damage during transport or storage. The text on the tape says: “Attention. Observe precautions for handling Electrostatic Sensitive Devices”
Features:
- Acrylic gum adhesive
- Printed black text and ESD logo on yellow tap
- Roll dimensions: 50mm x 66m
- Use for secondary packaging
